The Bonfires of Saint John (Catalan: Fogueres de Sant Joan, Spanish: Hogueras de San Juan, Galician: Fogueiras de San Xoán, Asturian: Fogueres de San Xuán, Portuguese: Fogueiras de São João) are a traditional and popular festival celebrated around the world during Midsummer, which takes place on the evening of 23 June, St. John's Eve. It is customary in many cities and towns in Spain; the largest one takes place in Alicante, where it is the most important festival in the city. The biggest celebration in Portugal is held in Oporto, where it is known as the Festa de São João do Porto. In South America (former Iberian colonies), the biggest celebration takes place in the northeastern states of Brazil, where it is known as Festa Junina.

  • Les Fogueres de Sant Joan són la festa major d'Alacant, declarades oficialment d'Interés Turístic Internacional des de 1984. Els seus orígens són molt remots, ja que deriva del costum de cremar objectes ballant entorn d'una foguera amb l'arribada del solstici d'estiu, com és comú en totes les celebracions de la Nit de Sant Joan.

  • Hogueras de San Juan (valencianisch: Fogueres de Sant Joan, deutsch: Freudenfeuer des Heiligen Johannes) sind die wichtigste spanische Festlichkeit, die am 24. Juni (Johannistag) begangen werden. Sie ähneln den Fallas in Valencia. Bei diesen Johannisfeuern werden in der ganzen Stadt haushohe, kunstvolle Skulpturen verbrannt. Zu den Hogueras wird außerdem ein Feuerwerks-Championat ausgetragen.

  • Костры святого Иоанна Крестителя (исп. Hogueras de San Juan , кат. Fogueres de Sant Joan) — летний народный праздник, отмечаемый 24 июня в Испании. Фестиваль проводится во многих городах (Хавеа, Бенидорм, Теулада-Морайра и Торревьеха), но крупнейший — в Аликанте, где этот праздник является одним из самых значительных. Праздник особо популярен в каталонских землях, по этой причине некоторые каталонские националисты называют 24 июня национальным днем каталонцев. 23 июня устраивают фестивали с участием наездников, большими кострами, через которые нужно прыгать.
